This is the predicted roadmap to the development of the Bast Framework. If there is any major Milestone to add to the RoadMap, feel free to open an issue and suggest it. Thanks
Setup a minimal App to run as text on HTTP Server with User defined Parameters (Host & Port)
Define Controller Structure which can be passed to routes and executed when HTTP Server runs. Requests and Responses should be accessible from the Controller Class
Must Haves
~~~~~~~~~~
- Retrieve requests (GET, POST, PUT, DELETE) arguments
- Retrieve headers (all and single header)
- Write to response (plain-text and json)
- Render View (Template)
Define Routing System for the Framework. Preferably in format route.get('/url', 'Controller.function'). Must be able to get import the Controller instance and method pass it to the Server for execution
Routing must support GET, POST, PUT and DELETE
Render Views in HTML form. Must pass static files in function format like in AdonisJS. Script files: ``{{ script('script.js') }} ``, CSS and images also.
Use Eloquent ORM for Database connection, relationship and querying
Write User Test
Using Eloquent ORM, run migrations to a predefined Database. Create Tables and Columns in the database using a migration:run command
Have middlewares attached to routes as per user preferences. Check if middleware is attached. if it is, attach middleware to route. Route middlewares
get executed first before the route functions. Middlewares must only define one method handle which if all conditions have been met must return True in order to
pass execution to the Controller function. The handle function must have a request argument which is passed automatically to it. Using the request argument, user can access
request functions like get_arguments, get_body_arguments etc
Load the config.ini file from the config folder in project directory. The Config file must contain every of the user's preferred configuration
Web Session. Must get, save and add. User determines if the way to save the session is through file, memory, database or Redis. User can be able to set in config if session is the preferred way or JWT
Class to validate user input. required, is_email, length, is_type would be among pre-defined functions. User would be able to define his/her Validation function if required
